A universally composable (UC) blind signature functionality requres users to commit to the message to be blindly signed. It is thereby impossible to realize in the plain model. Th...
Geometric Particle Swarm Optimization (GPSO) is a recently introduced formal generalization of traditional Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) that applies naturally to both continu...
We study the pattern statistics representing the number of occurrences of a given string in a word of length n generated at random by rational stochastic models, defined by means ...
A new algorithm for learning one-variable pattern languages is proposed and analyzed with respect to its average-case behavior. We consider the total learning time that takes into...
We describe the application of kernel methods to Natural Language Processing (NLP) problems. In many NLP tasks the objects being modeled are strings, trees, graphs or other discre...
